“ Hussain R.A: The Epitome of Bravery.

Bravery has a unique place in our


daily life. It has a holy definition and becomes meaningful with danger.
Perhaps the highest level of bravery occurs when one's life is in danger.
Mr President, When people plan to take a big risk in life there are many
things they usually consider before taking the leap. What could be the
possible outcomes are among the first thoughts. Hope of success and fear
of failure keeps looming over the horizons of optimism and apprehension.
Both positive and negative ideas keep baffling the mind. How would others
react; or in their endeavors to achieve something would they be putting at
stake other people’s future.
Mr President, Courage is a characteristic that very few are actually blessed
with. Our ability to take risks is proportionate to the precautionary steps that
we can undertake. The concept of ‘leap of faith’ is considered to be a
gamble the result of which is uncertain. It could make or break but the fact
is that all acts of valour, discoveries, innovations and inventions, bringing
riches and fame sprout from determination and courage. who had the
nerve to take risk.
Mr President, History has seen one such person in the form of Imam
Hussain R.A, the hero of Karbala, the king without a worldly throne, the
defender of principles and the epitome of Islam. He defied a tyrant named
Yazid who was bent upon spreading corrupt practices, making lives of the
people a living hell, unjustly using public property, destroying the moral
fabric of society and above all distorting the image of Islam. These were
intolerant acts but there were silent spectators all around because if
anyone in the kingdom boldly pointed his finger at this insanity, he was
immediately eliminated. No ruler is ever brought down by the effort of just
one. It is only when there is true public outburst and the nation unites to
fight that matters start taking a turn.
Shah ast HUSSAIN (R.A) badshah ast HUSSAIN (R.A)
Deen ast HUSSAIN (R.A) Deen e panah ast HUSSAIN (R.A)
Sar daad naa daddast dar dast yazeed
Haqa kay bina La Ilaha Ast HUSSAIN (R.A)

Mr President, Armed with the important tenet of enjoining the right and
forbidding the wrong (amr bil-maruf and nahy anil-munkar) Imam Hussain
R.A along with his small army comprising his close family members,
including women and children, and friends, proceeded to face one of the
most unique battles ever recorded in the annals of human history. His
unwavering courage and that of his companions have left such indelible
marks that despite the efforts of their enemies, these are getting more and
more etched in the hearts and souls of people.

Mr President, For as long as he could, Imam Hussain R.A used his full
strength to avert conflict and bloodshed, raising the flag of humanity and
preaching forbearance but when things got out of control, when sense got
overcome with madness, when thirst for blood got the better of the brute
forces, when words fell on deaf ears, when efforts to direct the misled
towards a dignified life failed, then he was left with no option but to take up
arms. He sacrificed himself and his family members-from the eldest to the
youngest (six months old Ali Asghar R.A)-but refused to surrender to
injustice and cruelty.

Mr President, The legacy of Imam Hussain Ibn e Ali (R.A) is one that
embodies great bravery, determination and grace in the face of tyranny
may the courage and character of Hazrat Imam Hussain be a beacon for all
during challenges.
Wafaa K Paikar, Ishq K Rehbar Hain Meray Hussain(R.A)
Aal-E-MUHAMMAD(S.A.W.W), Iban-E-Haidar(R.A) Hain Meray
Hussain(R.A).
